Plaxico Burress still has confidence he can help an NFL team, but he lacks a team to prove it.

Even with Santonio Holmes out for the season, the New York Jets opted to sign Jason Hill instead of Burress, who caught eight touchdown passes with the Jets last season. Burress told USA Today he is perplexed about not drawing more interest.

“Nobody’s even seen me and put me on the field,” Burress said. “That’s the sad part about it. Right now, if I was to sign with a team and go out and play, I’m going to do some damage because I’m back to being the player I know I can be.”

As for the Jets’ decision to sign Hill, Burress said, “I don’t know who he is. I’m sorry.’’

The Jets’ offense was sorry during Sunday’s 34-0 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Burress’ career baggage, his age (35) and past criticism of him by quarterback Mark Sanchez are probably all working against him.
